The soulless flirt master con artist Sun finds he has a heart after all when it gets stolen by the ultimate manic pixie dream girl Sairung, who is so quirky that there are five different versions of her. His path to self improvement via encountering true love for the first time in his life is interrupted by an entrapment scheme by that same girl's father coincidentally. Sairung's father Thepphachai is truly the worst of the whole cast of men that lie to women and all of them were liars. Both Sun and De ran a whole business that automatically take the side of the men that hire them to lie to and hurt their ex-girlfriends. Pat got close to and dated Sairung to get to her father and he has the nerve to judge Sun.
People who have DID is often after suffering the most immense trauma, and Thepphachai decides to hire a con artist to con his daughter to fix her. When he's confronted why he thinks that will happen and what's supposed to happen when she is hurt by the truth, he just shurgs. It's just a blind guess and he's doing something so horrible to his own daughter. He also was a coward who hid the truth of his wife's assassination to the point of destroying evidence rather than at least telling his daughter the truth even if he felt he couldn't share it with the world. The information didn't even end up doing anything to the murderer oligarch who realistically gets to go on to do evil. It's also really creepy how he joined in on the meeting about which of Sairung's personality that Sun wants to keep to be his lover from the perspective if he was choosing one to be his lover.
There's a lot of artistic license taken in this fictionalized portrayal of DID, so I'll just talk about how it's presented from within the story. Sun and Sairung have a lot of chemistry and were the first to fall for each other. She has the original name of herself and she may be the original personality before the trauma of finding her mother's corpse. The show seems to present the personalities of choosing one to be "whole", but it's also presented as they did fuse in the end as Sairung can feel the different sides of her in different situations and she can't see them as separate individuals anymore. I was wondering if there would be some different way of portraying Sairung after integration, but it also can make sense if this was always her original self.
Sun apologizing regardless of forgiveness from all the women he scammed is good. He's so lucky they only slapped him and non decided to sue him. It would be nice to see Nanon in some noona romances if he hasn't been in one already, but there can always be more with different genres and stories. De only realizing women are people too after talking to Gudji is so ridiculous, but at least he does come to that conclusion whereas sadly many in real life do not. It even took Sun forever and he's always talking to women. The pacing of the episodes were really good until it fell apart in the end with nothing really happening with the murder mystery side of things. There's no justice or catharsis. It's good that Sairung got to find some peace with her core trauma, but the murder was really half the story and that half got nothing.
